Salt and pepper shakers for the king and queen. A ruler for the prince. A spoon for the servant.
One by one, over eight days, every Shakespeare play is condensed into a series of 36 intimate and lovingly made miniatures, played out on a one metre table-top using a collection of un-extraordinary, everyday objects.
Seminal experimental theatre group, Forced Entertainment (UK) have long had an obsession with conjuring extraordinary scenes, images and narratives using language alone. Complete Works: Table Top Shakespeare explores the dynamic force of narrative in a simple and idiosyncratic summary of Shakespeare’s comedies, tragedies, histories and late plays, creating worlds as vivid as they are strange.
